Where can I donate my old glasses?

Why donate your old glasses?

One big reason to donate your old glasses: You can easily change lives. Over 1 billion people around the world with vision loss and lack of access to eye care could regain their sight with a pair of glasses, according to the independent nonprofit OneSight.

Donating an old pair of glasses you have lying in a drawer costs you nothing and can make someone else’s life much better, from helping a child on the other side of the world to see the board at school to letting a neighbor across town get the readers they need to get back to their favorite hobby.

In addition to giving the gift of sight, donating old glasses allows you to declutter your home and divert a perfectly useful item from the dump. Since the average U.S. resident tosses 4.5 pounds of solid waste per day, anything you hold back can help.
